So after two days of downloading at broadband speeds, I finally got all the pieces of the Orcas Mrach CTP downloaded. Doublce-clicking on Part1.exe expanded the other 8 RAR files. Once that was done, I used Virtual PC 2007 on top of my Vista Ultimate desktop OS. I left the setting at 1 GB of RAM. I then attached to the VPC image and there I was staring at a Windows Server 2003 Enterprise login. The VPC image seems to be put together well. In addition to Orcas (Visual Studio 9), both SQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005 are present. A nice bonus is that TFS is fully installed saving a lot of work. So far, I have just created a Team Project in VSTS/TFS and the speeds are ok. I am going to be digging in during parts of the weekend, so I'll have more as I go along.

I have already said my piece on the Vista launch but also Office 2007 launches today which really rocks. The much better Outlook 2007 is worth the price of admission alone IMHO. Vista and Office Launches Vista Launch Page Bill Gates Keynote European Launch Windows Vista Upgrade Advisor Office 2007 Launch Page Nial Kennedy on launch in San Francisco Microsoft Debuts Vista in Global Marketing Blitz Robert McLaws posts on all those great Vista Updates that finally showed up last night on my Update. Can someone get me to stop playing Hold 'Em Ultimate Extra, my fingers hurt -) Software Architecture/SOA Pablo asks "CRUD Service for Service - Is a Bad Practice?" I think it depends, and as Robert Wilczynski says in the comments, some kinds of CRUD are fine, but the greater anti-pattern is chatty contract/interface. What's your thoughts? Pablo also talks about Services in .NET Part 1 Edward has started a new series of posts about factory basics called 'Factories 201', and he has kicked that off with a post entitled "What are they (concretely)?" [via Jezz Santos ] Arnon continues his excellent architectural writings on his Architect Blog with What Is SOA Anyway?: Part I, Ambiguity and Anyway? Part II, Hype Soma talks about Software Factories [via Harry ] WCF/Web Services/Workflow William Tay makes the very real case for why WS-ReliableMesaging is vital. I mean, when people *** about WS-*, I don't get how its not obvious that "the main characteristics of Web services is communication over unreliable communication channels such as the Internet employing unreliable data transfer protocols such as HTTP, SMTP and FTP" and many of us need things like WS-RM and other standards to build real service-oriented systems that actually do something.

Workflow/BPM/WCF/SOA David Chappell presents arguments both pro and con as to whether Microsoft qualifies as a BPM vendor. Personally, I think the answer is yes, especially when WF is intergrated into BizTalk 200x and other products. Nicholas Allan continues the excellent Indigo WCF posts with Controlling the Synchronization Process LINQ and Family/CLR PLINQ, which I blogged about some time ago has surfaced again with this post from DonXML where he does some clever reading of Microsoft job posts! to make some educated speculations on the growing importance of Concurrency and Parallellism in the CLR as well as PLINQ . And yes, Don, "the cool kids [ALREADY] realize that WPF, WCF and WF are yesterday's news, and LINQ is where it is at ;)" Speaking of LINQ, see the XMLTeam blog for the announcement of the LINQ to XSD Preview and these links: Here is the link to the LINQ to XSD download . The LINQ to XSD overview document is available separately. You also need the LINQ download (May 2006 CTP) Here is the link to the LINQ to XSD download .

A very good day to leave the country and find a new one... WCF/Indigo/SOA/Workflow/.NET Framework 3 Here are the separate download links for the parts of .NET Framework 3 RTM that I blogged about yesterday: Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 Redistributable Package Microsoft® Windows® Software Development Kit for Windows Vista™ and .NET Framework 3.0 Runtime Components Visual Studio 2005 extensions for .NET Framework 3.0 (WCF & WPF), November 2006 CTP Visual Studio 2005 extensions for .NET Framework 3.0 (Windows Workflow Foundation) Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Tools for the 2007 Microsoft Office System Windows SDK .NET Framework 3.0 Samples - Microsoft Identity and Access Webcast Series [via Craig McMurthy ].

This one would be a real good one for us to jump onto to. Windows SDK: Planning Ahead Mike Taulty on Workflow and ASP.NET Web Services . Nothing to do with Mike's fine article but does anyone else other than Steve and I find that WF doesn't work with another member of WinFX, WCF right out of the box very strange?? I understand the need to support ASMX and I am fine with that but in the last 3 years couldn't they have also integrated WF and WCF before ship for the rest of us??
